Mild fantasy threats, a romantic quest and some suggestive humor feature. Its measured, whimsical style may suit viewers who enjoy storybook adventures more than fast action.

Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
